From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

Zhao Yingkong felt a chill run down her spine.

While she, Zheng Zha, and the others were still thinking about how to complete the mission, earn reward points, and complete side quests before returning to reality, Chu Xuan was already pondering the essence of the Main God Space and even considering switching jobs?

They are on completely different levels in terms of their thinking.

"Calling it a job change isn't quite accurate; at this stage, it's more like an investment," Chu Xuan thought for a moment and corrected his previous statement.

"Wait, why are you telling me all this?"

Zhan Lan realized something was wrong.

“You have been given a point of light by Jiang Liu. According to the God’s explanation, even if you go to other times and spaces, you can still contact him at any time.”

If it weren't for this, Chu Xuan wouldn't have bothered arguing with this "pretty face".

"Isn't Zhao Yingkong the same?"

Zhan Lan wanted to shift the blame to Zhao Yingkong.

“She comes from a family of assassins and has a dual personality; the dominant personality is an uncertain factor,” Chu Xuan said, having his reasons. “And you are a writer; your thinking is at least quick, and you can keep up with mine.”

The main problem is that the Zhongzhou team only has so few people right now, so he can only find gold in the trash!

As a writer, Zhan Lan could easily understand Chu Xuan's implied meaning. She was both amused and exasperated, but she could only agree, on one condition: "You can't do anything to scheme against your teammates."

"Are newcomers considered teammates?" Chu Xuan asked.

"It doesn't count!"

After staring at Chu Xuan for a while, Zhan Lan finally uttered two words.

Can future newcomers be considered teammates?

We'll have to wait and see how they perform.

The reason she agreed to Chu Xuan's offer wasn't because she was hoping for a job change that seemed so far away, but because with Chu Xuan's intelligence, even without scheming against his teammates, he could actually increase their chances of survival.

Afterwards, the two focused on their journey. One relied on the light given to him by the river to protect his mind, while the other, with his innate emotional deficiency and his practice of reversing the eight directions, barely resisted the "brainwashing." They entered the South Heavenly Gate one after the other.

Seeing the auspicious clouds swirling around the pillars and the radiant light entwining the jade bridge, Zhan Lan felt as if she had truly entered the legendary Heavenly Court.

Stepping onto the jade bridge, she was overwhelmed by the magnificent palaces and halls on both sides, including thirty-three heavenly palaces and seventy-two treasure halls.

demon?

This is clearly paradise!

“The difference between ghosts and gods really lies in the word ‘purity’.” Recalling Zhang Zhiwei’s words about the difference between “ghosts” and “gods”, Zhan Lan finally understood the meaning of the words “ghosts and gods”.

Upon entering the Tongming Hall and then the Lingxiao Hall, Zhan Lan and Chu Xuan feigned bowing, accepted the "Nie Xiaoqian's" pardon, and took control of the spiritual realm, becoming Thunder Generals, before reuniting with the Red Maiden...

···

"Do you have any plans on how to 'make havoc in Heaven'?"

Zheng Zha and Ling Dian have found Lu Jin, Li Muxuan, and Gao Huan and asked them about the "Havoc in Heaven" plan, to see if Jiang Liu had given Lu Jin specific instructions on how to carry out the operation.

"First, find Smith and Stephen Whitey."

Using the mental scanning technique taught by Jiang Liu, Lu Jin had already found the whereabouts of the two Westerners. "Brother Jiang is trapped in the 'underworld' and cannot know the situation in the Heavenly Palace. With his Qi refining skills alone, he may not be able to deal with the Black Mountain Demon. We must also get those two foreigners who know alchemy to contribute."

Zheng Zha had no choice but to agree and follow Lu Jin's instructions, together trapping Smith and Stephen Whitey in a small alley.

Outside the alley, animals and ghostly figures walked upright and gathered around, creating a lively scene, but Lu Jin and his group paid no attention to them.

They had already tested these ghosts and monsters, and generally, as long as they followed the rule of "not eating food made by ghosts and monsters, and not taking things from ghosts and monsters," they could basically do anything and would not turn into wild boars like the soldiers of the Smiling Tiger.

Even killing a ghost in the street won't arouse their alarm or panic. Instead, they'll take the dead ghost's body away to make food or clothing.

In other words, although they possess intelligence similar to humans and can even speak human language, they do not feel sadness or fear at the death of their kind.

Emotionless!

In a sense, this is one of the manifestations of "purity".

However, they may be curious and puzzled, but they won't pry too deeply, just like right now—

They will come and watch as Lu Jin and the others surround Smith and Stephen Whitey, but they will not step forward to stop them.

"Young men, are you going to fight us?"

The moment Smith finished speaking, he pulled a wand from his pocket, about to cast a spell, when Lu Jin quickly pulled a Mauser pistol from his waist.

The gun was pointed at the magic wand in Smith's hand.

boom!

The moment the trigger was pulled, a gunshot rang out, and the bullet instantly shattered the magic wand.

How shrewd is Smith?

Without saying a word, he immediately raised his hands in surrender!

Zheng Zha, who was not far from Lu Jin, was taken aback upon seeing this: "You play with a gun?"

"There's a flaw!"

Stephen Whitey, however, was unwilling to surrender. Noticing Zheng Zha's dazed expression, he had a sudden thought, and a black mist surged around him, instantly passing by Zheng Zha.

Zheng Zha reacted quickly, immediately mobilizing his vampire energy to form a ball of blood flame between his hands, which he then flung towards the black mist.

However, the blood flames passed through the black mist without causing any damage.

This is one of Stephen Whitey's abilities: Phantom.

It can transform its body into a formless black mist, ignoring both physical and energy attacks.

It can be immune to attacks, but not to restraints!

Lu Jin activated his internal energy, instantly unleashing a magnetic field that bound the black mist to its original position and pulled it back to where it was.

Snapped!

The moment the black mist was flung to the ground, it reformed into the figure of Stephen Whitey, grimacing, his backside clearly having been badly slapped.

Indeed.

This skill, called Phantom, is somewhat similar to gathering and dispersing energy, but while it can change the form of life, it cannot change the magnetic field of life.

By controlling the reversal of directions and unleashing a human magnetic field, one can connect with the opponent's life magnetic field and bind them! Seize!

"For self-defense."

Swinging his pistol, Lu Jin finally answered Zheng Zha's question, then stared at Stephen Whitey and said, "I have the ability to catch you. If you run again, my gun might accidentally go off."

To provide evidence for what I say:

The moment the muzzle of the Mauser pistol that Lu Jin was twirling between his index fingers turned and was aimed at Stephen Whitey's crotch.

boom--

Gunshots rang out again.

The bullet struck him precisely three inches below the groin, leaving a small hole.

Stephen Whitey turned pale with fright, quickly covering his crotch. He breathed a sigh of relief upon discovering only a hole in his pants, then yelled at Lu Jin, "You wicked brat! You almost killed me! Do you still want the antidote?"

"Of course I want to."

Lu Jin looked amused, pointed the gun at his crotch again, and chuckled, "Then please take out the antidote!"

Otherwise, I can only assure you—

"This shot of mine will definitely hit your manhood."

Upon hearing this, Stephen White's expression changed drastically, turning red and then black. Considering the eeriness of this space, he could only agree to Lu Jin's request. He rolled up his sleeves, revealing a silver bracelet, and with a flick of his wrist across a crystal above it, he took out the antidote for "Genesis".

A bottle containing a yellow liquid.

# Chapter 396 The Antidote to "Genesis"

How can I be sure you're not lying to me?

Lu Jin did not immediately believe Stephen Whitey.

The latter also knew that the other party was not old, but not only strong, but also meticulous. So he took out another bottle from the crystal on the silver bracelet, which contained black liquid.

Stephen White poured out the black liquid, which seemed to sense the difference in its surroundings and became active, constantly rising and falling, and continuously secreting a substance similar to alcohol.

The resulting effect is that the black liquid continuously diffuses outwards into a clear, transparent liquid, which also has a rather pungent odor.

"'Genesis' is not poison in the traditional sense; it is a living thing, a kind of bacteria, a kind of bacteria that coexists with the sacred tree."

Stephen White took a deep breath and said to Lu Jin, "Actually, 'Genesis' is not poisonous. On the contrary, the fluid they secrete is a highly nutritious component that the human body can absorb without any hindrance. But the problem is that too much nutrition is also a burden on the human body."

Lu Jin had no doubts.

The principle of moderation is something that those who practice Qi cultivation in the East understand far better than those who practice alchemy in the West.

Furthermore.

Jiang Liu had already told Lu Jin about the role of "Genesis".

Then, Stephen White picked up another bottle and dripped the yellow liquid inside into the "Genesis".

In an instant.

The black liquid trembled violently, and then it disappeared, replaced by a faint green liquid.

"This is the detoxification effect."

Stephen White extended his finger, dipped it in a drop of the green liquid, and to ensure its effectiveness, put it in his mouth and sucked on it. "The yellow liquid is extracted from the remains of the Divine Tree and can effectively inhibit or even kill the 'Genesis' germ. The two will produce one or more chemical reactions. We don't actually know the specifics, but in short, it will eventually form a bluish-green liquid, like apple juice, and taste the same. It is edible."

Lu Jin nodded, took the bottle containing the yellow liquid, and then took the bottle containing the "Genesis" bacteria. She opened it and used her magnetic field to control the two globs to send into the mouths and noses of Smith and Stephen Whitey. Then she took off the silver bracelet from Stephen Whitey's hand and put it on her own.

"you!"

Stephen Whitey was both shocked and furious as he felt the "Genesis" enter his nose and then continuously penetrate his body.

But Lu Jin didn't care and said bluntly, "This is the sincerity you should show me."

Stephen White gritted his teeth, but had no choice but to accept his fate, saying, "Fine, in your Eastern parlance, we're in the same boat now."

The reason is simple.
